Abstract
An apparatus that dispenses a cooked food product measures out a predetermined quantity of dehydrated food material for a cooking portion, quickly adds liquid to the material to produce a rehydrated food material of uniform consistency, and simultaneously shapes the rehydrated material into desired size and shape pieces, and delivers the pieces to a cooking unit. After the pieces are cooked, they are automatically dispensed from the apparatus and the next portion is prepared.
